Global Connections

Nexia International is a leading worldwide network of independent accounting and consulting firms. The key to our success is simple: the strength of our member firms in the major global financial and economic centres.

Nexia International was founded in 1971 by two firms: Oppenheim Appel Dixon & Associates (U.S.A.) and Spicer & Pegler (UK). At the time, these two formidable founding member firms serviced over half the firms in the financial services sector in London and New York. Outside the global accounting firms, no other international network has this pedigree.

Our clients naturally expect the highest standards of professional advice. All of our independent member firms apply strict procedures and standards and are subject to regular quality control reviews which must be met as a condition of continuing membership of Nexia International.

With members in all the world’s major economies, Nexia International can deliver:

  • A truly global resource of professional expertise offering a comprehensive portfolio of assurance, tax and advisory services

  • Access to detailed knowledge of local regulations, cultures and customs

  • Consistently high levels of client service, based on strong, long lasting professional relationships
